Thanks, i prefer it this way, as in a separate thread.

By the way, will the APN automatically be set in the phone? Or must manual do it? If so, how do i set in the APN in the most simple way?

Thanks

weird...

try this:
download:
http://hotfile.com/dl/58947725/9565587/OTA...4wrv30.zip.html

*Rename the file to update.zip and copy it to your microSD card.
[Note: make sure the file is named update.zip and not update.zip.zip.]

*Power down your Desire.

*Hold down the “Volume Down” button while you power the phone back on.

*A screen should appear showing your phone’s system searching for various files. Scroll down(by using the volume down button) to “recovery” and press the “Power” button.

*When you see the triangle with an exclamation point symbol, press the “Power” and “Volume Up” buttons at the same time.

*From the menu that appears, select “Apply sdcard:update.zip.”

*When the screen displays “Install from sdcard complete” select “reboot system now” and wait for the phone to power back up.

Check your build version again to confirm. It should be 2.09.XXX
